Vienna ; and accounts were said to have reached Harnburgh of a decisive naval victory having been gained by the Greeks over the Turks. We subjoin some extracts :-- 13111.1 N, OCT. 18.--Spenir's Gazette contains to-day the following account received by express from Vienna, dated the 13th instant :—" A report has been spread to day on 'Change that the differences with Turkey were al ready settled at Akermann." This report seems prema ture ; however, accounts of the .sth of October, received to-day from Constantinople, leave no doubt of the speedy termination of this business. The Greeks are said to have gained a decisive victory over the Turkish fleet, which was obliged to retreat to near Smyrna. (The Vienna Journals of the 13th, of course, do not contain this news. Baroness Wilhelmina Von Ottenfels, daughter Of the Austrian Internuncio, arrived from Con stantinople on the llth.) On the Ist of this month, Divine Service was publicly performed in the Chapel of the Palace at Warsaw, on ac count of the Coronation of their Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Russia. HAAIRURGII OCT. 19.—News has arrived hero by an extraordinary Channel, of a decisive naval victory gained by the Greeks over the Turks. It is also confidently expect ed that Turkey will accede to the terms proposed by rtttesia. Notwithstanding all our endeavanrs we have not been able to learn any particulars of the first-mentioned event. MhY we not suppose that Lord Cochrane has distinguished the commencement of his career by the victory alluded to ? Alt thet we can learn is, that the account comes from mina, and is d a t e d th e 13th. &roc:Kumar OCT. 10.--The Greek Committee at Mar s eines has written to that at Stockholm, stating that it has been deemed absolutely necessary not to send any soldiers to Greece, because, being actuated by ambition rather than philanthropy, they do more harm than good to the Greek cause, and even those who are animated by the most laudable sentiments, soon become a burden to the country, from Wa nt of moans to support them. The Parisian Com mittee, it is added, has adopted the samexesolution.— What most Claims the attention otha humane, is the ran 'wilt% of the families from Missolonkhi, who have been rude slaves ;,,the snding of, provisions to places where they are wanted, and to Colonel Fabvicr the money which the Committees can dispose of for such purposes. The letter states ,what has already been done, and particularly recommends the education of some of the abandoned Greek children whom the Marseilles Committee offers to send to Btockholm at its own expense. 13.—1 t is supposed that the law-suit against M.

T he partial action between the two squadrons, of which we yes terday gave an account, Was of a very singular description, the Brazilians under Norton, with overwhelming number and force, thought best to retreat before the Patriots. The natural conclusion, after all We haVe heard is, that the m peror's cause is unpopular on board his own ships, as well as among_ his land troops. Desertions are frequent, both of soldiers and sailors, and as for the inhabitants Of Monte Video, we were informed some weeks since by a. native, that nothing appeared to prevent. their declaring for liberty, except the presence of the garrison. It is hardly possible that any other cause than a general dissatisfaction in the squadron, should have made the Brazilian squadron fly. " Tut! HAVANNAII SQUADRON.—The ship Beverly, ar rived at Boston on the Sth inst. in lat. 32.50. lon. 76. 45. - fell in with a 74-gun ship, and a frigate, totally dismast ad, every . thing being carried by the board. Another frigate was in company, which had her mainmast and the stumps of the fore and mizenmasts only standing. They informed Capt. Moore they lost their_ masts the day pre vious, and desired no assistance. Capt. Moore states they appeared to be shy of the Beverly, probably. supposing her . a Colombian cruiser, and for the purpose of deception hoisted French colours. (From the Philadelphia National Gazette.) " The intelligence received this day from Mexico is of considerable interest. It seems that the Congress 'of Pa nama, now of Tacubaya, did not Waste time, but con cluded, on the 15th July, a Treaty of Alliance and Per petual Amity between the Republics represented in it, and other agreements, the precise charaoter of which has not yet transpired. The text of the letter of the Mexican Commissioners, on the subject (which we have before us) is—' un tratado de liga y amistad perpetua entre las Re-' publicus concurrentes, turn convention sobro contingente, un convenio reservado un concierto.' We are not sure that Buenos-Ayres is comprised in the'tcrin concurrenter ; if so , she will be the first to feel the benefit of the l eague . We have received the Mexican Government Gazelle extra, containing the official annunciation. " While thousands of English operatives remain without employment, the cotton trade has so far revived in Phila delphia, that power-loom weavers cannot be procured in sufficient numbers.

" Fuels MEXICO.—Our Vera Cruz papers, by the fast sailing schooner, Blucher, at this port, are to the 22d ult. inclusive. They furnish no news. The state of commerce is represented as deplorable— two years' atock, of goods in the market, and no money to pay for .them., The ininea unproductive, and many of those engaged byi foreign companies, abandoned. " Commodore Porter had taken the command of the Mexican Navy, which is in a dismantled and inefficient state, without officers and men sufficient to man one fri gate properly. " When the Blucher left, Vera Cruz was quite healthy ; no instance of fever having occurred for six weeks previous to her depart ire." QuEnac, SEPT. 12.—Mr. Kean was, during the night of Sunday, seized with an alarming illness, under winch he still continues to suffer. his medical attendants, how ever, do not by any means consider his case as hopeless, but confidently expect that rest and a short retirement will restore him. We understand that letters have been received in town, which state that the lion. Mr. Felton was returning from London without having effected any thing in favour of the Lower Canada Lurid Company. Matters were not yet settled between Government and the Upper Canada Land Company; and the representations from the local admi nistration are said to have been adverse to the Lower Canada project. CLIARLES - TON, SETT. 11.—The planters throughout the State are now busily engaged in harvesting their rice, and picking in their cotton; and the weather, for the last two weeks, has been generally favourable for the purpose.— From present prospects, the crops of both these great staples will be at least equal to that of the past year, which was a good one.

Francs Ai Vi 5 22i Amsterdam The renewed attempt which has been made in Por tugal to overturn the recently established Constitution, and to raise, upon its ruins an absolute Monarchy for DON MIGUEL, is well calculated to excite consider able uneasiness for the stability of the present order of things. It too clearly proves the existence of a power ful party, whose views are in complete opposition to the reigning Government : and as it is well known that ,the QUEEN is at the head of this party, that some of the most influential Noblemen are members of it, that the Priests throughout the whole Country are striving to promote its object, and that some part, at all events of the soldiery, are contaminated by the principles which this party wish to promulgate, we are not without our fears that the tranquillity of Portugal, if not the stability of her Government, will be seriously dis turbed. That this party should ' actually succeed subl*rting the present order of things, we do not con sider likely, because the people of Portugal generally are extremely favorable to the new Constitution, and anxious to disburthen themselves of the shacklei of the Priesthood, and of that arbitrary form of Government - • under which' they so long suffered : but we, never theless, oonsul er it b pio a • ble that the foundations of the new Institutions may be shaken by these rebellious:at 'te'opts, and that the whole system of the Government may be ke pt ill 4 continued s t a te of alarm and uneasi ness by the machinations of this p a rty. It is of suf fieient consequenc e then to be put down, and a' de ' cided att em p t to o so should be made without loss of time. It w ill be ask d in Wh a t man ner this should be at tempted.

We are not anxious to see an army sent to Portugal, or any other Country, to subjugate its inha bitants, or to. enforce an order of things to which they are inimical ;:but when we know that the Nation at large is most desirous to perfect the system of Government which has been recently established, and when we know that the opponents of it are to be found only in the ranks of the army, amongst the Priesthood, and the partizans of a disappointed and intriguing woman, we see no reason why, in such a crisis, the assistance of a military force should not be afforded to the Government of Portugal for the annihilation of the faction. A Very small force would be adequate to this object, and the gratitude of the Portuguese Nation, and:the confirmation of our commercial treaty, would be a sufficient reward for the trivial additional expence which would be incurred. We have already supported the new Constitution by the presence of several line of battle ships, and our Marines have formed a body guard for the INFANTA REGENT ; the lending therefore to Portugal the aid of 2 or 300() men would not involve any new principle. Justice towards a faithful Ally, and motives of self interest, equally urge us to take this measure, and we shall be disappointed if the call which it is understood Por tugal has made upon us in this hour oftiouble, is not readily . answered by the'soli c it e d sup p or t. There is one point, howev er , t o w hi c h we mus t a d ver t. W e consider that the feeling which exists in favor of DON MIGUEL, amongst the army and certain other classes, has been kept alive by the unfortunate act of DON PEDRO in affiancing his daughter, the future Queen of PORTUGAL, to this contemptible Prince, contrary to the Laws of God, if not to those of Portugal. He is viewed in consequence as the future Sovereign of the Country, which his age must, in fact, render him, when his betrothed wife ascends the Throne : and as such, it is natural that a party should be continually struggling to bring him forward at once, that they may the sooner share the rewardi of their attichnient to and be the slaves of the absolute GOverninent which they delight in. If DON MIGUEL is fit to be the destined husband of the youthful Queen, it may well be , argued that lie might at Once be placed as REGENT, in the situation to which, in point of fact, lie must ultimately succeed. We know, however, that he is unfit to fill any such station, and therefore we consider that the betroth ing the daughter of the EMPEROR to this Prince is one of the grossest mistakes *iliCh DOD PEDRO or his Ministers could have made. Let that act of folly be revoked, and the partizans of Don MIGUEL will lose much of the stimulus which now excites them to attempts of a treasonable nature against his Royal Sister and her Government. ' A Meeting of the Holders of Greek Bonds was held yesterday, for the purpose of receiving the report of_the Committee appointed at the last general Meet ing, to inquire into the application of the sums raised for the Greek Government in this country. This Report, and the proceedings of the Meeting, will be found in our preceding columns, but they occupy so much space that we can do little more to-day than refer to them as possessing matter of very high interest. Mismanagement and misfortune have attended the affairs of Greece in all quarters, and the exposures which have been made with regard to the sums of money raised for its service in Europe, fully prove that the, friends of Grecian Independence have not acted with wisdom and due caution in the superin tendence of the appropriation of the money so raised. If a different line of conduct on their part had been pursued, the affairs of the Mores would never have been sunk doWn to their present unfortunate state. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, MT. HOEHOUSE, Mr. Ef.LicE, and other professed admirers of liberty, came in for their share of censure at the meeting yesterday, for not having executed their duty as Members of the Committee of Management ; and it being found diffi cult whom to acquit rather than whom to condemn amongst the host of persons whose conduct was deemed to have contributed to the present unfortunate lot of the Bondholders ; the Meeting adjourned for a few days, to afford the public interested in this busi ness time to form a judgment on the whole question, and to enable the Bondholders to come prepared at the next Meeting to adopt some decisive measures. The following is from a French Paper, received this morning:— It is known that Count Pogo di Ilorgo, the Russian Ambassa dor, received within these two days nil extraordinary courier from Moscow, and 'tie suspected that this courier does not bring favour able accounts in regard to the war with the Persians, It appears that the result of the first commencement of hostilities was not so advantageous to the Russians as reported, and if we are well in formed, at the departure of the last despatches, it wan believed at St. Petersburgh that Tiflis was taken by the Poraistis.

COURT' OF KING'S BENCH, Gummam.r.—(Tms DAY.) tc.tINEV V. JOHNSTONE ANL CRISDALE. Mr. Scaittm stated the rase. , The plaintiff was formerly a p ar t ne r in a bank at Whitehaven; one of the defendants had been for a time the clerk, and the other the partner of the plaintiff. It was alleged that the plaintiff was insolvent ; a' Commission of Bankrupt was consequently taken outagainat him, and the present action was to try whether that Commission had or had not been lawfully taken out.—The plaintif f was nonsuited. ADMIRALTY SESSIONS-,(THIS DAY.) OLD BAILEY. The above Sessions commenced this morning before Lord STOWELL, who entered the Court at nine o'clock precisely, as companied by Drs. Phillimore, Pickard, and Haggard. The Commission of Oyer and Terminer for a General Gaol Delivery, for offences committed on the high seas, was then read, and the Grand Jury sworn. His Loanssur then charged the Jury as follows:—There are on the calendar six charges, ti►ur of which are very serious—two for murder ; one for traffieking in slaves, a capital offence; and one for the cruel and barbarous treatment of a mariner, coin mitted by a superior on an inferior officer, ► o rder the pre tence of inflicting proper punishment ; the two other charges are of minor importance. You will be pleased to retire, and after hearing evidence, return to Court, and give in your presentment. His Lordship then retired to breakfast, and returned to Court at, ten minutes past eleven o'clock, accompanied by Mr. Justice Park and Mr. Baron Garrow, when the Grand Jury presented a true bill, against Thomas Young, for having wilfully and feloniously carried away four female slaves within two miler of the main land of Africa, with a view of trailiOcing therein. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Ilenie Ann opened the pleadings. Sir CURISTOMM RoBINSQW, the King's Advocate, stated the case for the prosecution. Having explained, at considerable length, the nature of all the acts which hsd hitherto passed, pro hibiting traffic in slaves, he observed, that in consequence of the measures of late years adopted by his Majesty's Ministers, with a view to the gradual abolition of slavery, it was found necessary that the punishment of transportation for fourteen years, which had been previously attached to offences of this nature, should be augmented to that of felony without benefit of elergy. The pri soner set out from Liverpool as captain of a ship, in the spring of 1825, in order to trade in guns and ivory on the coast of Africa. In the November of the same year he reached that coast, and en tered into contracts with some of tl►e natives, whereby he sent some merchandise, principally cutlery, which he had exported from this country, on shore, and he was to rece►ve iu return a sti pulated quantity of gum and ivory, and es * security for the latter, the four fe►nale slaver in question were given up to him as a deposit ; the Africans not performing their part of the contract at the time agreed upon, the prisoner sold those slaves, who were in the nature of hostages, to a Spanish slave-trafficker, who happened to come in contact with him on the 2fith November. The Learned Advocate entered into a detail of all the circumstances connected with the cue, which were substantially as above ; and after he bad concluded David Pepper was called; being examined by the ATTOUNlLY thareaat, he deposed as follows :-1 was steward of the ship Malta, which traded from Liverpool to the coast of Africa in 1825 ; the prisoner was then captain of her ; she set sail in April, and bad twelve hands on board, exclusive of the captain; the tiro land she reached was the island of St. Thomas ; they afterwards went to the river Oaboon, and from thence to the river Danger, where they entered into a trade of wood and ivory with the natives, for which they returned cloth, blades, and cutlery. This trade was carried on under the direction of the prisoner. A person named Antonio Tong, acted as interpreter between Captain Young and the natives. The Malta was then moored within llf miles of the , shore. I know a place named She island of ' t C44' riseo, which is eight miles from the main land ; our ship was stationed between that island and the continent ; the ;Video was a ship of 202 tons ; I recollect some black women canting on board, about 14. in number, during this trade. • I heard the pri soner say, that if their husband. did not pay the debt, be would sell them. I heard the prisoner say, that these women were left as pawns for the goods sent on share ; the ship was moored in the river Danger ; when these came on board the 14 women were re deemed, and went back Again ; at a subsequent period eight women came on board as pawns, four of whom went back. The whole were redeemed by their husbands; but the prisoner, after having received the due quantity of ivory, said he would detain four for the King's debt.. The name.. of these four were Nura, Pickeninny, Jumbo Jack, Prince Quarbel. The latter was called Prince, because that was her husband's name. The prisoner told the husbands, before me, that if King Quarbel dill not pay his ocusaioedort:,:,;:orrtf.ovtl4l,o'aleayP-1111whinailth: m iv oi:v l as a b o r n o tt ug iv h a t n , t it t W o debts 14 would make sale of the women. Tit e 'Fleenor said, that there was a Spanish schoenee at St. John's, and that he would sell- the wnwteu to. the Captain of ' it. I recollect a mate cemieg on board about that time who spoke Very goo! Engliali, and asked the Captain if he had ail goods to sell? who replied that be had soma cloth, beetle, iron, and also four women. Ho told me to bring them eut of the steerage ; of in i t i o e ter hu;teone ;Lin parni d eo i h le e r d i the Spanish mate said that he wee*/ them slaves to sell them to a French slave ship, which was near band, I brought up the women, one by one, into the cabin ; the mate, on seeing them, said they were very good women ; the prisoner said that he did not wish to sell Nura. The mate went away next morn ing; his name was Roach. Ile returned the next even ing with the schooner, which wee on the 18th of November. When the schooner came over we saluted her with four guns ; the Captain Of the schooner cone on board the Mo/t4 with four Th e interpreter, the captain, and' the prisoner, went I heard the interpre ter say so th u a l t et t h h i e ng m t p o tat in e k a ; ute to buy the goods of tell him that the finn. women whom I spoke hint ; the prisoner said , to the mats about, may be had for sale ; I did so ; the women were stript, and the prisoner took them by the shoulders and turned them round, the Spanish Capt. having seen them, returned to than hooner and came back next morning, asking, to see ti,-4 geo d e .

I remember a mate coming on board front a Spanish schooner, and I heard the prisoner ask hint to buy the four women, and also to say that they were of high families front Gamboon, and if he would take them there he should get four slaves a-piece for them. I have heard the prisoner say lie was born iu Galway.
